# Checkers

Classic draughts, your way: 8×8 with 12 stones or full 10×10 with 20. Captures are mandatory, and crowned pieces fly.

## Solve the chain

Green to move, and captures are mandatory. Find the jump chain that clears three coral stones and crowns your piece.

This is a mini demo in your browser. The real thing runs inside mssgs, with your friends.

## How it works

### Move diagonally

Stones step one square diagonally forward, toward the far side of the board.

### Captures are mandatory

If you can jump an enemy stone, you must, and jumps chain together, clearing several stones in one turn.

### Crown your stones

Reach the far row and your stone is crowned. A crowned piece flies any distance along the diagonals.

### Win the board

Capture or block every enemy stone to win. Host picks the board: quick 8×8 or the full 10×10 game.
